N2 - Limitations of conventional X-ray mammography have stimulated recent interest into active microwave based diagnostic approaches that take advantage of a sharper dielectric contrast between benign and malignant breast tissues exhibited in the UHF range of frequency [1]. This interest comes from a superior sensitivity of RF-based techniques, which can have a huge social and cost impact. Therefore, many microwave imaging techniques, aiming at detecting, localizing and identifying cancers in breast tissues, are being developed and investigated.
